题文

APRIL 5 marks the 100th anniversary(周年纪念日)of the sinking(下沉)of the Titanic. In 1997, the movie Titanic was a huge hit all around the world. Now, the 3-D version of the movie will come to Chine theaters on April 10.As anyone who has en the movie knows, the Titanic struck an iceberg(冰山) and sank on its first voyage in 1912, killing 1,517 people. A century after the accident, scientists have found something new to blame(负责任) for the sinking: the moon. Donald Olson, a Texas State University physicist, led a team of astronomers(天文学家) to examine the moon’s role, according to Reuters.Normally, icebergs stay in place and cannot move until they melt enough or a high tide(潮汐) frees them. A single iceberg can become stuck many times on its journey southward. The process can take veral years.According to Olson, a hundred years ago the moon made its clost approach to the Earth in more than 1,400 years. This caud the moon to have a much stronger pull on the Earth’s oceans than usual, which created a super-high tide. The tide pushed icebergs from shallow waters off the coasts of Canada’s provinces, Newfoundland and Labrador, into the Titanic’s way.“Of cour, the final cau of the accident was that the ship struck an iceberg,” Olson told Reuters. “It went full speed into a region with icebergs, but the lunar connection(月亮的联系) may explain how an unusually large number of icebergs got into the path of the Titanic.”The rearch team will publish their rearch in the April issue of Sky & Telescope magazine.根据短文内容，选最佳择答案,并在答题卡上按要求作答。小题1: How many people lost their lives in this accident?A．Over 2,000 people.B．about 100 people.C．More than 1,500 people.D．We don’t know.小题2: The underlined word “voyage” in the cond paragraph really means ______.A．航行B．飞行C．划船D．游泳小题3: Which of the following about icebergs is TRUE?A．Icebergs move only when the tide frees them.B．An iceberg can stop for some time during its travel.C．An iceberg will move as soon as its melts.D．It takes an iceberg veral months to leave its place.小题4: Which of the following played a role in the sinking of the Titanic? a. the moon                 b. the tides             c. too many pasngers d. the high speed of the ship    e. going the wrong way   f. the iceberg A．a,b,c,fB．a,c,d,eC．a,b,d,fD．a,c,e,f小题5:.

考点

据考高分专家说，试题“APRIL 5 marks the 10.....”主要考查你对 [新闻报道类阅读 ]考点的理解。

新闻报道类阅读

报刊阅读应逐步成为中学生阅读的一个重要内容。由于新闻报道强调遵循5个W和1个H的原则，学生在阅读时也要抓住这一点去理解。

新闻报道类阅读的注意事项：1. 品味新闻的标题，联系平时所积累的知识，为了解材料大意作铺垫。 2. 了解新闻报道的特殊规律，其内容和多含何人、何地、何事、何时等，阅读时要抓住新闻的这一主要特点去理解判断。 3. 要注意文中以黑体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是材料的核心或至少是一部分内容的概括。 新闻报道类阅读答题技巧：

1.审视标题，抓住中心

试题中有的文章有标题，有的没有，拟题人是有所考虑的。标题是文章主题的高度凝聚。它能给我们启发和想象，想象文章的内容和走向。这样做有利于对文章的理解，能提高做题的效率。

2.浏览全文，掌握全貌

如果时间紧，至少要快速通读全文，尤其是首两段。再把标题和文章内容结合起来，这样全文的梗概便一目了然了。

3.细读题目，抓住要点

对整篇短文内容有了一定的了解后，要马上看短文后的问题，带着问题去选择或判断答案。要确定所需查找的信息范围，并注意所查找信息的特点。例如：如果问题或选项涉及到人名、地名，就应该找首字母大写的单词；如果问题或选项涉及时间、日期、数字，就应该寻找具体的数据。另外还要注意试题难易，应暂时绕开那些少数较难的题目，先做最有把握、最熟悉的题目，也就是该类题可以直接或间接从文章中找到的。而对于那些要通过对文章归纳判断、逻辑推理的题目，需要再对全文快速阅读，仔细分析思考，反复比较、推敲选出正确答案。若文章短可先读短文，后看文后题目；如果文章太长，你可以先把文章后面的问题看一遍，带着问题去看文章。这样可以帮助你去掉杂念，提高阅读速度和解题的正确性。要善于找关键句，特别要注意文章的第一段和最后一段的头一句话，往往就是关键句，可以帮助你掌握文章的全貌，理解文章的主题。此外，还应该细读文章，因为有时的试题是考细节。可以边读边用铅笔做点标记，把有关的画出来。凡逢人物就圈起来，看完一数，有几个圈就是几个人，一目了然。

4.细读文章，掌握细节

这次应细品，不可一晃而过。可边读边用铅笔做些记录，把有关的人物、事件、时间、地点、起因（即五个W：who， what， when， where， why）划出来。经过这样的处理，你对文章的内容和细节便会胸有成竹，对事态的发生、发展和解决有了更加深入的了解。

5.理解大意，初选答案

一般短文都设有五个题目，对那些表层理解的题目可以断然选定。对那些深层理解的题目，应再查阅原文，但决不是简单重读，应找出依据，把所答案代入文中，再确定正误。在确定答案时，对文章和题中的词语应结合上下文思考其确切意思，切忌望文生义，作出错误的判断。

6.复读全文，核对答案

要用全文的主题思想统率各思考题，研究其内在的联系和逻辑关系，并依次审核那些未获解答的题，对照题目，推测判断，确保理解无误。

7.瞻前顾后，首尾突破

对一具体问题不要局限于一词一事，而应从短文整体考虑，从主线向外扩展，打开思路，前后上下对照。这样，可减少“钻牛角尖”和“繁琐分析”。而且，在中考试题中，即使是事实和细节题，也是“围绕或用以说明主旨和大意”的。大多数短文，尤其是新闻报道或议论文的第一段，或每段的第一句，常包含了全文的主要信息或基本观点；而结尾部分常是结局或结论。寓言或幽默文字的结尾也往往是点晴之笔或值得玩味之处。因此，抓住首尾往往抓住了主要矛盾，主要矛盾解决了，次要矛盾也就迎刃而解了。
